Luke Combs is rewriting the record books in real time. His “My Kinda Saturday Night Tour” has set new attendance records at every single stop since launching in March, moving through Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, Scott Stadium in Charlottesville, Jack Trice Stadium in Ames and Notre Dame Stadium in South Bend before landing at Ohio Stadium in Columbus, where 97,367 fans turned out for the biggest show of his career to date. Every venue. Every time. A new record.
The radio achievements running alongside the tour are equally staggering. Combs is now the first artist in history to have two different solo songs simultaneously top both the Billboard and Mediabase country radio charts. “Sleepless in a Hotel Room” sits at No. 1 on Billboard’s Country Airplay chart for its third consecutive week, while “Days Like These” earns him his 21st consecutive No. 1 on the Mediabase Country Aircheck chart, extending his own record for the most consecutive No. 1s to start a career. “Days Like These” also holds the No. 2 spot on the Billboard Country Airplay chart, making Combs the first artist to hold the top 2 spots simultaneously, and the first to do it twice, after “Fast Car” and “Love You Anyway” pulled off the same feat in 2023.
Behind all of this is ‘The Way I Am,’ his new 22-track album that debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Country Albums chart and No. 2 on the all-genre Billboard 200 with 100,700 equivalent units sold. Produced by Combs, Jonathan Singleton and Chip Matthews, the album dives deeper than anything he’s recorded before, exploring the challenges of balancing family and career, self-doubt and self-belief and the clarity that comes from narrowing your focus. A collaboration with Alison Krauss on “Ever Mine” is among its standout moments. The critical response has been overwhelming, with The New York Times calling him “the dominant hitmaker in country,” Rolling Stone praising the album as making “the convincing case that as an artist, songwriter and down-the-center representative of a genre as sprawling and red-hot popular as country music, Luke Combs contains multitudes,” and Music Row declaring “this is a superstar at the peak of his powers.”
The accolades keep stacking. A TIME100 cover story with a tribute written by Ed Sheeran. Three ACM Award nominations including Entertainer of the Year. A GQ Hype cover. Profile features in The New York Times, NPR Music, Esquire, Pitchfork and Billboard. Last year, Combs became the first country artist to headline both Bonnaroo and Lollapalooza, in addition to topping the bills at Austin City Limits, Newport Folk Festival and New Orleans JazzFest. He’s also the first country artist with 2 songs earning a billion streams on Spotify and the first with 4 singles certified RIAA Diamond.
The tour now moves through major North American stadium dates before heading overseas for a European run that includes sold-out nights at Johan Cruijff ArenA in Amsterdam, 2 sold-out nights at Slane Castle in Ireland, sold-out dates at Scottish Gas Murrayfield Stadium in Edinburgh and 2 sold-out nights at Wembley Stadium in London, with a third Wembley date still available. Canadian fans get their moment at Parc Jean-Drapeau in Montreal on May 29 and Rogers Stadium in Toronto on June 5, with the June 6 Toronto date already sold out.
Special guests vary by market. North American dates feature Dierks Bentley, Ty Myers, Jake Worthington and Thelma & James. European dates bring in The Script, The Teskey Brothers, Ty Myers and The Castellows, with Thomas Rhett joining for the Wembley run. It’s one of the strongest support lineups assembled for a country tour in years.
